Name my tambourine

edited May 2008 in The Porch
I just realised that, almost a year later, I still haven't christened my tambourine... I affectionately refer to it as Tambo quite often and was thinking of Clang... but it doesn't quite roll off the tongue :)

Any ideas? I'm going to my nephews christening on Sunday so I could ask the priest if he could give the tambo a quick dunk! :D

Edit: the winning entrant will receive a signed (by me) photo of said tambourine :p

    Tambo! :D

    what's wrong with Tambo? :confused:
    Been to this many PJ shows: Reading 2006 London 2007 Manchester & London 2009 Dublin, Belfast, London, Nijmegen & Berlin 2010 Manchester 1 & Manchester 2 2012...

    ... and I still think Drive-By Truckers are better.

    Look at that: you've made me cry all over the keyboard. :(

    Would it be too cheesy to call it Hel's Bells? :p

    Why would that stop you? :confused::p

    I dunno, I'd probably end up calling it Stephen, or something, just cos I think it's funny to give things "people" names.

    Won't let the light escape from me.

    Tuborg Tambourine... clever :D but I like short names. Was thinking also of Tam or Tammy (after my dear childhood dog, Tammy)

    no such thing as a 'quick dunk' ;):p
    oh scary... 40000 morbidly obese christians wearing fanny packs invading europe is probably the least scariest thing since I watched an edited version of The Care Bears movie in an extremely brightly lit cinema.

    You could get really stupid about it, and call it "Bob" or "Dylan". Y'know, with the song and all.

    nothing, it's a Finnish man's name. :)

    here's what Wikipedia has to say: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Teppo

    Frank's a pretty sharp name for a tambourine. :)
